6. CONCLUSION

- Now a major social problem of global warming, energy

is one of important element in the world.

- It's an important element for achieving a low carbon

society how to utilize energy efficiently

- As part of the energy-saving green IT has been

proceeding all over the world.

- And green ET (Embedded Technology) is also important

element.

- This green ET can realize a low carbon society to

connect energy and information by power supply

To realize green ET, different type of intelligent power supply will be required against legacy power supply. Because, future power supply system needs to control power of total system to communicate each other. Then digitalization of power supply is very important to realize intelligent power supply. Digitalization research of power supply was proceeding before, but could not appear practical products due to performance and cost issues. But now, development of digital control power supply is accelerated due to the appearance of high performance and low cost DSP.

- DSP (Digital Signal Processor) is the processor specified

for the digital signal processing. More than 25 years have

passed after appearing this product in the world

- At first time, this processor was developed for the

military application

- DSP was applied on various application such as control,

voice, audio and image processing

- When control applications such as HDD and motor control were moved from analog to digital, some DSP evolved to high speed control oriented DSP. Now this DSP is attracted attention for energy control processor

- Fig I shows the rough MIPS requirement of DSP for each application.

1. DSP for control applicationAfter appearing DSP at the beginning of year 1980, first control application using DSP was:

motor control DSP was used for high speed AC servo motor control for industry application

A/D converter

2. Application for energy control

In the energy field, DSP is used for the control of UPS

(Uninterruptible Power Supply) and solar inverter

Now, it's focused on the digital control power supply application and the future development is expected. A/D converter and PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) are most important modules for energy control. It was difficult to realize high speed switching of the digital control power supply using old one-chip DSP due to not enough performance of A/D converter and PWM. The appearance of DSP can easily realize the digital control power supply with high performance.

1. A/D converter

- One of important peripheral for digital control power supply is A/D

converter

- Digital control power supply needs to sense input voltage , output

voltage and output current and control PWM output.

- A/D converter uses for sensing function and conversion time will be

important to improve system performance.

2. PWM (Pulse Width Modulator)

- PWM is also important peripheral for digital control power

supply.

- Output voltage of digital control power supply will be decided to

control switching of power module by PWM output.

- High resolution of PWM output can control detailed switching

control of power supply

2. PWM (Pulse Width Modulator)

Picture I and II shows output voltage of digital power supply

Picture I PWM control using 10ns resolution

signal is unstable

Picture II PWM control using 160ns resolution

signal is stable

There are two types of processor for digital control power supply One is micro controller which has hardwired PID controller. It has not flexible feature like DSP, but this device has capability to change parameter from internal micro controller and can realize digital control power supply like a DC/DC POL (Point of Load) The other is DSP which is all programmable solution. Users can select these products depend on their system requirement.

by Texas Instruments.

Differential Sense Inputs

- With pricing reduction of DSP, energy control products will be

changed in future . In the past, energy control system was developed

as one system

- The benefit to use digital control power supply units which is

consisted of power module is short development cycle time and

flexibility of system design

Parallel connection of Power units (Capacity up)

Serial connection of Power units (various products)

Figure III shows class structure of digital control power supply.

The control from out side of system was limited when use legacy

power supply units. But to use DSP, system can react quickly to

identify system condition.

1. Communication to identify condition of system

System monitoring is one of function to utilize communication

feature, And system can identify condition of power supply quickly

2. Communication to detect failure

- Failure detection is also important item, It is difficult to identify

failure detection using legacy analog power supply module.

- When the value falls below a certain power efficiency, power

module sends alert to the system quickly.

- Then system can identify failure of power module before

breaking module

- At first time, DSP was developed for motor control application and

expand to not only motor control but also energy control

application. To employ DSP for energy control system like digital

control power supply, new energy control system will contribute

future Green IT and Green ET society

Green technology

- The key points to start employing DSP for power supply are high

clock speed, high performance A/D converter and high

resolution PWM on DSP.- To use communication function on

power supply system, system will be

able to identify system condition and

detect failure of component.

- In the future, DSP will be key device

in energy control area.
